`url` : |
`auto_detected` : |
`ex` : |
Returns : |

### CamelProviderModule

    typedef struct {
    	gchar *path;
    	GSList *types;
    	guint loaded:1;
    } CamelProviderModule;

### camel_provider_init ()

    void                camel_provider_init                 (void);

Initialize the Camel provider system by reading in the .urls files in the provider directory and creating a hash table mapping URLs to module names.

A .urls file has the same initial prefix as the shared library it correspond to, and consists of a series of lines containing the URL protocols that that library handles.

TODO: This should be pathed? TODO: This should be plugin-d?

### camel_provider_load ()

    void                camel_provider_load                 (const gchar *path,
                                                             CamelException *ex);

Loads the provider at `path`, and calls its initialization function, passing `session` as an argument. The provider should then register itself with `session`.

`path` : | the path to a shared library
`ex` : | a CamelException

### camel_provider_register ()

    void                camel_provider_register             (CamelProvider *provider);

Registers a provider.

`provider` : | provider object

### camel_provider_list ()

    GList *             camel_provider_list                 (gboolean load);

`load` : |
Returns : |

### camel_provider_get ()

    CamelProvider *     camel_provider_get                  (const gchar *url_string,
                                                             CamelException *ex);

This returns the CamelProvider that would be used to handle `url_string`, loading it in from disk if necessary.

`url_string` : | the URL for the service whose provider you want
`ex` : | a CamelException
Returns : | the provider, or `NULL`, in which case `ex` will be set.

### camel_provider_module_init ()

    void                camel_provider_module_init          (void);

### camel_provider_auto_detect ()

    gint                camel_provider_auto_detect          (CamelProvider *provider,
                                                             CamelURL *url,
                                                             GHashTable **auto_detected,
                                                             CamelException *ex);

After filling in the standard Username/Hostname/Port/Path settings (which must be set in `url`), if the provider supports it, you may wish to have the provider auto-detect further settings based on the aformentioned settings.

If the provider does not support auto-detection, `auto_detected` will be set to `NULL`. Otherwise the provider will attempt to auto-detect whatever it can and file them into `auto_detected`. If for some reason it cannot auto-detect anything (not enough information provided in `url`?) then `auto_detected` will be set to `NULL` and an exception may be set to explain why it failed.

`provider` : | camel provider
`url` : | a CamelURL
`auto_detected` : | output hash table of auto-detected values
`ex` : | exception
Returns : | 0 on success or -1 on fail.
